A VR Travel Story That Makes You Want to Be Humiliated - Chapter 119: Lake Veles (17)

Chapter 119: Lake Veles (17)

What are the advantages of a game called WM?

Of course, you can customize the world you want to play in through settings using WM Points.

Right now, that’s the only reason I’m playing this game.

The world, culture, race, technology, environment, religion… You can literally change almost every setting in the game.

However, the production team decided that this alone was not enough to make it a game that can be enjoyed for a long time, so they limited the settings.

You can only change the settings by a certain amount of WM points, and if you want to get more WM points, you must clear the scenario and receive a turn bonus.

The fun of composing a combination of settings to play a conceptual play with limited points, and the reward of being able to add more settings the more you clear.

The production team’s intention was exactly right, and WM became unrivaled in terms of concept play.

In WM, the settings are a feature that supports the entire game.

But if you have to keep the settings you set at the beginning until the end, you might get bored halfway through, right?

That’s why this lucky trick was created… It was not an ability cube.

It goes without saying how important each ‘ability’ or ‘penalty’ is to the characters of this game.

Just like the “Swordsmanship talent” That made Runon, who had lived her entire life as an inn clerk, decide that she could make a living as an adventurer in just a few months, ability alone is enough to define the character’s concept.

An ability cube that allows you to acquire such important abilities even with a chance.

The exact effect is that when used, you can randomly gain 0 to 1 ability and 0 to 1 penalty.

There is no outcome that leads to nothing. In other words, the number of cases is three.

This is an item that allows you to enjoy a completely new concept when you get tired of the character concept in WM, which can take several months for a single episode.

For example, let’s say Flora gains a new skill in swordsmanship.

It will be possible to create a new romantic magic swordsman tree from an orthodox wizard.

Does it help you make a new tree in front of the stagnant water that is already boring? I can’t stand this.

If you’re unlucky, you may end up having to pay a penalty… Even in that case, there will be content needed to alleviate the penalty, so it is a good thing from the point of view of stagnant people.

Of course, if you get a penalty, you can’t help but get upset, so it’s called a lucky item.

What if you don’t have enough time to consider new abilities? Then you don’t have to use it.

Truly an item for stagnant people.

I told Asil and Flora how valuable this item was, cutting out the meta aspect and only giving it abilities and penalties.

“Why is something so precious here?”

“Iknow, right. This is something I’ve only heard about and never seen in my hometown… ”

The hometown that Flora talks about is Wangseong. In other words, this is a rare item that even the royal family of a country has never seen in person.

The reason it is so precious is simple.

This is a reward for progressing the scenario.

This is a reward item given when something meaningful is achieved related to the scenario.

In this case, since the scenario is ‘Invasion of the Demon King’s Army’, it means that our party’s just blocking the Fishman’s attack was a big hindrance to the Demon King’s Army.

You can get NPCs just by going through the scenario. Normally, it’s rare for a player to do it all, but the amount of ability cubes Flora knows about must have been released in that way.

“So?”

“Huh? You know, that’s why?”

“It’s expensive. Are you going to sell it?”

“Paldanyo! It’s incredibly precious!”

“Okay. We will use it.”

“Soira?!”

Flora said, looking at me with wide eyes as if she had heard something nonsense.

“Are you really going to use it? I don’t want to sell it either, but I could probably live off of this for the rest of my life, right?”

“Money can be earned in other ways. “There is no other way to obtain this ability.”

“Even though… ”

Flora muttered as if she still had more to say, but did not object further.

Among the commonly heard sayings in this world, there is a saying, ‘Ability cannot be measured in money.’

Flora, who knew what I meant, eventually agreed to what I said. This is because he himself benefited greatly from the ability of “Magic Affinity” And knew very well how important the ability was.

On the other hand, since Asil was not from this world, he did not understand how important this was and did not oppose it.

I just felt like using expensive items.

That’s how the story decided to use the ability cube.

“Then let’s finish what we have to do first.”

“What to do?”

“There might still be fish people left, so I should check out all the places I originally wanted to go.”

“Right. “I completely forgot.”

I almost forgot my original purpose because a huge item was suddenly dropped.

We walked around the cave one more time, looked at each of the points we had marked on the map, and then returned to the accommodation.

As a result, the fishmen could not be seen anywhere except in the cave. It was literally like winning the first room.

◆

When we returned to the accommodation, we immediately started discussing.

“Ruler. So, who wants to write it?”

“Before that, I have a question. Can I ask?”

“Okay. You know. “What is it?”

“That… It’s a penalty. Is there anything really serious?”

“Ok? … Aha.”

What is he saying? I wanted to, but I was able to understand it right away.

I expected that Asil might not know much about penalties. That’s because usually you don’t set abilities by adding a lot of penalties like that.

An ability like “Charm” Would certainly be nice to have, but it wasn’t an ability worth adding despite the penalty.

In other words, Asil did not set the penalty himself. You don’t even know what penalty you’re incurring.

“The penalties vary greatly. Some things just make you unlucky, some require you to sleep for 10 hours a day, and some don’t allow you to use magic. I also saw a woman who was penalized for exposing her underwear without her knowledge.”

“Okay? “I don’t know if it’s a man, but it’s a shame that women face such a penalty.”

That’s you.

Asil (the holder of “Unconscious Exposure”) Thought about it carefully and made a decision.

“I am done. I don’t want to use it. “I already have enough ability.”

“You have enough ability? How many do you want?”

“Five.”

“Five?!”

Flora was shocked when she finally found out about Asil’s munchkin castle.

“Usually just two are enough to be called a hero?! How can there be 5 of them… !”

“Well? “Isn’t it because it exists?”

“What is that… ”

Flora was at a loss for words as Asil spoke calmly as if it was someone else’s business.

However, since Asil’s words themselves were correct, it was also true that there was nothing to say.

Ability is innate. The saying, ‘It exists because it exists’ was truly an accurate expression of ability.

The only exception was this ability cube.

“How about Flora?”

“Uhm… It’s okay for me too. “I think it’s too risky.”

Flora already possesses invaluable abilities as a wizard.

It’s a shame that there is no “Magical talent”, But the ability cube grants random abilities and does not give you one, so it’s a gamble with very low odds.

Since there is a penalty of 2/3, it is not unreasonable to judge that the risk is high.

“Then I write. “No complaints?”

“Nothing.”

“I’m fine too.”

I talked about it in grandiose terms, saying it was valuable and all, but in the end, it is an item.

When magical power was injected in the same way as operating other magic tools, the ability cube rattled for a moment and then disappeared with a bright light.

“… Is it done?”

“Soira. How is it? “What’s different?”

Asil and Flora, who were watching, leaned in and clung to him as if they were going to attack him.

No, it’s just been written, so there’s no way it’s already showing off its abilities…

Tiriring!

There was.

What? I’m here now, doing it right now. There was a signal!

As the unfamiliar sensation caught my attention, Asil and Flor became quiet, probably because they knew I was testing out my newly acquired abilities.

A round circle appears in my head.

There were several concentric circles drawn in the center of the round circle.

As I concentrated a little more, several small dots appeared within the circle. Two dots close to the center, two dots a little further away, and one dot further away.

I knew it intuitively. The closest dots were Asil and Flora, the dots a little further away were Kiven and Sophie, and the dots further away were Runon.

Radar.

This was radar.

When I opened my eyes, the two women with shining, expectant eyes sent me silent pressure. Tell me quickly.

After putting an iron plate on my face and completely ignoring it, I opened the status window and checked the abilities I had gained.

「Radar: You can determine the location of people nearby. You can set the types of people displayed.”

You can set the type?

When I learned that point, I was able to see the commonality of the point that came to mind a little while ago. They were colleagues and friends, so to speak, allies.

As soon as I thought about changing the settings, dots suddenly started appearing. My head started hurting as more and more points came to mind, so I reset the settings. They seemed to be neutral, meaning they had nothing to do with each other.

Unfortunately, the enemy was not displayed. Or maybe it’s because it’s not within the visible range of the radar. If you could know the location of all invisible enemies, it would be a deception ability.

And in addition to the ability, there was a penalty attached.

It would have been the best result if I had just gained the ability.

… Actually, it’s a lie. I also expected a penalty. How much of a penalty will there be? And.

I looked at the penalty item with excitement.

「Honest body: You will no longer be able to hide your reaction to sexual stimulation.」

Oh.
